New Partners

Since the creation of Twitch in June 2011 (and for a select few back with the launch of JTV in August 2009), thousands of broadcasters have fired up their webcams, logged into their favorite game, and started broadcasting. In that time, we’ve seen the success of thousands of broadcasters, witnessed many record-breaking events, been a part of some of the most epic game launches in history, and have become the go-to place for charities to raise millions of dollars through online gaming.

While we’ve always taken pride in our broadcasters, supporting them throughout their journeys, we’ve decided to make a more public appreciation in those who have spent hundreds (and to some, thousands) of hours dedicating time and energy to putting the best live gaming content on Twitch. After months of planning, we’re really excited to announce the new Twitch Top Broadcaster Program.

Wargaming today announced the WG Stream mod, which allows World of Tanks and World of Warplanes players to broadcast gameplay directly to your Twitch channel with one simple click.

No matter what your skill level, WG Stream mod has been designed for ease of use. The intuitive interface allows you to assign hotkeys to manage the broadcast and offers a variety of settings to optimize broadcast quality.

TwinGalaxies.com announced a new 24/7 interactive, live streaming, original programming channel called TWIN GALAXIES LIVE (TGL), powered by Twitch. The channel launched on April, 28th 2014, featuring state-of-the-art Skype and Twitch integration.

We’re proud to announce our support of High School Starleague (HSL), North America’s premier esports organization for high schools. With the financial support from Twitch, Newegg, and other companies, HSL has announced today that the top talent in this season’s HSL League system will be competing for over $20,000 in college scholarships! Twitch and NewEgg are each contributing $10,000 toward the scholarship. (I guess you could say the ‘e’ in ‘esports’ means ‘education’.)

Do you like watching games on Twitch? Do you like chat? Do you laugh maniacally in your chamber of solitude imagining yourself as an all powerful being with the ability to control the fate of others? Well, have we got a game for you! Choice Chamber.

Today, Twitch is happy to announce a new partnership with a long standing pillar in European esports, TCM-Gaming. UK-based TCM boasts nearly a decade of experience in the esports space and is the current home for some of Europe’s strongest players in Call of Duty: Ghosts, World of Tanks, and FIFA.

TCM has a special CoD: Ghosts stream planned to kick off the partnership. More info after the break.

We’ve got an exciting new first today as Gameloft’s Asphalt 8: Airborne for iOS will be the first ever mobile game to feature Twitch’s live broadcasting functionality. The game will debut its broadcasting capabilities during the week of the Game Developers Conference (GDC) with a 24-hour live stream event on Twitch.

The most celebrated fighting game franchise of all time is coming together with the world’s leading video platform and community for gamers. Announced today, Capcom and Twitch are collaborating to deliver the Capcom Pro Tour, the first ever Street Fighter-focused fighting game league. Comprised of a combination of premier events, ranking tournaments, and online tournaments, the Capcom Pro Tour establishes a year-long foundation for the fighting game community, culminating with the grand finals at the Capcom Cup this December.

For those wanting greater control over who can join your chat room, we’ve rolled out email verification to be enabled by you, the broadcasters. By navigating over to your Twitch Settings/Chat, you may check the box labeled “require a verified email to speak,” making it so only those who have verified the email address used to sign up for their Twitch accounts may speak in your room.

You may have noticed back in December that Evolve, the growing social network and collaboration platform for gamers, announced their intention to integrate Twitch broadcasting directly into their platform. Now they’re debuting the product this week at the Game Developers Conference. See below for details from the official press release and a screenshot of the integration in action:

Twitch is the largest live video platform and community for gamers with more than 100 million visitors per month. We want to connect gamers around the world by allowing them to broadcast, watch, and chat from everywhere they play.
